As the order came to Li Yunlong, his brows also wrinkled.
We were originally here to prevent the enemy from coming, but now we want him to pass.
But after thinking for a moment, Li Yunlong was ready to execute the order.
Because he believed that Li Qiufan would not harm him, and the other point was that this was an order, not a consultation with him.
Fortunately, the water in the river is not deep, only about one and a half meters deep. You can walk across it while holding weapons and ammunition.
Due to the reinforcements from Chu Yunfei, the Jinsui Army did not find another way, and therefore did not find this shortcut to go around.
Li Yunlong and his troops crossed the river smoothly, and then hurriedly sent a telegram to Li Qiufan.
After receiving the news from Li Yunlong, Li Qiufan took the map and looked at it. Then he chose a dormant position for Li Yunlong and agreed to launch an attack when he saw the signal flare.
Li Qiufan did not let Li Yunlong launch an attack directly, because his real plan was to attack at night!
Because the Jinsui Army has more troops than them, plus there are also troops from the National Army.
There is a high probability that Li Qiufan's side will be blocked if he attacks during the day, and then Li Yunlong will be in danger.
He was going deep in alone. If Li Qiufan couldn't fight back, Li Yunlong would be eaten by the enemy.
After a day of indiscriminate bombing, when night fell, the two sides reached a tacit ceasefire.
At night, the line of sight was blocked and accurate artillery fire could not be carried out. Both sides did not want to waste artillery shells.
On Chu Yunfei's side, after suppressing the Eighth Route Army with artillery fire during the day, he felt a little high-spirited.
"Brother Chu, it's all thanks to you this time. I think it's better if we launch a general offensive tomorrow and take down the Eighth Route Army on the opposite side in one fell swoop?"
During dinner time, Wang Tiansheng asked the cooking team to make a few side dishes, and then brought out a bottle of good wine to entertain Chu Yunfei.
As everyone sat down, Wang Tiansheng discussed with Chu Yunfei and planned to use his artillery fire to capture Li Qiufan in one fell swoop the next day.
"Haha, of course it's possible. I'm also looking forward to the upcoming victory, hahaha..."
Chu Yunfei nodded. He agreed with Wang Tiansheng's proposal. He wanted to see Li Qiufan standing in front of him as a prisoner.
Naturally, everyone was happy that the two had reached a cooperation, and everyone started to exchange cups and cups with a smile.
Compared with the Jinsui Army, Li Qiufan had not eaten yet, but had summoned all the cadres for a meeting.
"Is everyone here?"
Li Qiufan looked away from the map and asked Heizi beside him.
"Everyone is here!"
Heizi nodded and replied to Li Qiufan.
"Now that everyone is here, let me announce the next order!"
Li Qiufan was about to issue the order directly without any intention of discussing it, which made everyone very confused about what the new order was.
"Launch a night attack at twelve o'clock tonight. The garrison division will move behind the first and second divisions in advance. The same division and the second division will serve as the main attack!"
"After seeing the signal flare at twelve o'clock, the Third and Fourth Divisions immediately moved toward the two wings of the Shanxi-Sui Army."
"Remember, the mission of your two divisions is not to charge, but to encircle and be ready to support the main attacking force at any time!"
"All troops must move quickly! Don't give the enemy time to react! Do you understand?"
Li Qiufan immediately revealed the plan, shocking everyone on the spot.
They had the same idea as Zhao Gang, but they didn't expect that Li Qiufan would counterattack at this time.
But everyone was Li Qiufan's old subordinates, so they were just shocked and did not ask questions.
"It's no problem, right? That's settled, let's start comparing the watches now!"
Seeing that no one responded, Li Qiufan nodded, and then checked his watch with everyone.
"One more thing. Li Yunlong's troops have moved to the rear of the Shanxi-Sui Army and will launch an attack with us."
"Remember to inform the following about this, so as not to accidentally injure one of your own!"
Li Qiufan told Li Yunlong's story again, and everyone suddenly realized.
It turns out that Li Yunlong led his men to steal the butt. No wonder Li Qiufan launched a counterattack.
After receiving the order, everyone returned to their positions and began to arrange the night attack.
At around ten o'clock, the garrison division quietly moved behind the first and second divisions.
These three divisions combined have nearly 35,000 men. It is really not enough to launch an attack against about 100,000 enemies.
But the night attack is different. Even if there are 100,000 people surrounding him, he may not be able to withstand this night attack of 35,000 people.
The vision is not clear at night, and the calculation is done mentally but not intentionally. In addition, there are more than 20,000 people from Li Yunlong stealing the butt, and this matter is very promising.
As time passed, the officers of the Jinsui Army had fallen asleep, and everyone in the Eighth Route Army was waiting.
When the watch hands reached twelve o'clock, a signal flare was fired into the sky by Li Qiufan.
The moment the signal flares lit up, the First Division and the Second Division rushed out of their positions, followed closely by the garrison division.
More than 30,000 people began to charge towards the Jinsui Army, which stunned the soldiers of the Jinsui Army.
Shadows of people moved in the dark night, densely packed like a group of ghosts floating over.
Coupled with the help of the weather, maybe it was raining continuously in the sky to suit the occasion, adding a touch of horror to the atmosphere.
The soldiers of the Jinsui Army were all stunned when they saw this scene, and they didn't even fire for a while.
"What are you doing standing still? Fight!"
At the critical moment, an officer reacted, took out his pistol and fired in the direction of the Eighth Route Army.
After hearing the gunfire, all the Jinsui troops finally came to their senses and began to shoot with their guns.
For a moment, intensive gunshots rang out in the silent night, and all the sleeping senior leaders of the Jinsui Army were awakened, and Chu Yunfei was no exception.
"what happened?"
Wang Tiansheng ran out of the command post in disheveled clothes, while Chu Yunfei also ran over from the other direction.
After asking a few more soldiers, I found out that the Eighth Route Army had launched a night attack.
"Damn it, I can't sleep even if I want to!"
When he heard that the Eighth Route Army was coming, Wang Tiansheng cursed while adjusting his clothes.
"Haha, brother Wang, there is no need to be angry. This night attack is the Eighth Route Army's best trick, but with their small strength, they will probably fail!"
Chu Yunfei smiled at Wang Tiansheng, and then spoke a few words of comfort. Wang Tiansheng nodded repeatedly.
But at this moment, gunfire suddenly rang out from behind them, and the gunfire was getting closer and closer.
"There's someone else!"
Chu Yunfei stared in the direction of the gunshot with wide eyes, and shouted at the same time.
"Why did the Eighth Route Army come behind us?"
Wang Tiansheng was dumbfounded. He didn't expect that his butt would be picked out.
